Trojan understands the value of strong, reliable supplier partnerships – especially when they span decades. Their commitment to building lasting relationships with local manufacturers has been a cornerstone of their success, and Trojan is proud to highlight some of their long-standing Yorkshire-based partners who play an integral role in the creation of their high-quality baths and shower trays.
Trojan's suppliers provide them with everything from raw materials to the smallest of fittings, ensuring their products meet the high standards that their customers expect. From their base in Huddersfield, Trojan work with a range of trusted partners to ensure local and sustainable manufacturing excellence.
Olicana – Ilkley
For over 40 years Olicana has been one of Trojan's most trusted suppliers, providing many of the fittings that are essential to their baths. The relationship they have with Olicana goes beyond just business – it's personal.
Olicana’s founder supported Trojan through some of their toughest times, including when they faced near administration in 1991. Their unwavering support during those difficult moments is something Trojan's own founder, Maurice Mosley, was always grateful for, and it’s a bond that has only strengthened the two businesses over the years.
MPM – Leeds
At 48 years, MPM is Trojan’s longest serving supplier. MPM is a family business which shares the same cornerstone of integrity as Trojan. MPM provide moulds and patterns for a wide range of applications in both their bath and shower tray factories. Their close collaboration with Trojan has led to significant innovations in product design.
Like Olicana, the founder of MPM, Brian Wilson, stood by Trojan when they needed them most in 1991, cementing a bond that continues to this day. In fact, MPM has often featured Trojan in their social media posts, showcasing the strong, trusting relationship we’ve developed over the years.
McLar – Rotherham, Fastbox – Leeds and Tri-Wall – Chesterfield
All three of these local suppliers are key to the production and packaging of Trojan's products.
McLar provides some fittings and pallets necessary for the safe transportation of Trojan goods, while Fastbox and Tri-Wall are responsible for the packaging that ensures their products reach customers in perfect condition.
These companies, like many others in our supply chain, are crucial to Trojan's day-to-day operations and help them maintain the efficiency and quality that Trojan is known for.
Shaw Timber – Huddersfield and Ramsey Timber – Bradford, Triesse - Leeds
Trojan takes great pride in working with Huddersfield-based suppliers like Shaw Timber and Triesse, whose high-quality baseboards play a crucial role in the construction of their Huddersfield baths and other premium products.
Similarly, Ramsey Timber supplies essential soft timbers that contribute to the durability and reliability of Trojan's bath manufacturing process. These partnerships are a testament to their dedication to using locally sourced materials and supporting Yorkshire businesses.
BUFA – Manningtree, Essex
While most of Trojan's suppliers are based in Yorkshire, they also work with BUFA in Essex for their resin needs. BUFA’s high-quality resin ensures that their products meet the rigorous standards that Trojan is known for.
British Manufacturing Quality Standards
Each of these businesses provides essential materials that help Trojan manufacture and deliver high-quality baths and shower trays to their customers. Their expertise and dedication ensure that Trojan continues to meet the high standards expected of a leading bathroom manufacturer in the UK.
The Trojan Ethos – A Commitment to Honesty and Integrity
What truly sets Trojan apart is the strong ethical foundation laid by its founder, Maurice Mosley. His unwavering commitment to honesty and integrity in every aspect of the business is something the business still holds dear today. It’s this reputation that has allowed Trojan to build such strong, lasting relationships with their suppliers, who have supported the business through thick and thin.
As Trojan looks to the future, the business remains committed to nurturing these local partnerships, which not only help Trojan thrive but also contribute to the success of businesses across Yorkshire. They are proud to work alongside such dedicated suppliers and look forward to continuing these relationships for many years to come.
